abstract: To quantify the fluidity of blood it is not suitable to measure whole blood viscosity as blood is no Newton's fluid. For this reason, it is necessary to measure characteristic blood flow parameters direct. This study presents methods of measurement for plasma viscosity, haematocrit, thrombocyte aggregation, erythrocyte rigidity, erythrocyte aggregation and leukocyte adhesivity.
